System Recovery & Replication for Manufacturing Operational Technology

Automated recovery, failover and recovery testing
with legacy OS support.

How We Help

System recovery for legacy operating systems

Protect both Operational Technology (OT) & IT systems from a common platform

Early warning of file encryption powered by machine learning (ML)

Recovery testing without interrupting production

As manufacturing companies embrace Industry 4.0, they become increasingly vulnerable to cyberattacks. The integration of IT and OT in manufacturing environments has expanded the attack surface for cybercriminals. Complex supply chains and digital manufacturing processes further exacerbate these risks. Cristie are helping manufacturing companies to modernize system recovery and replication for OT and administrative IT systems to minimize downtime and build cyber resilience.

System Recovery

Orchestrate tiered system recovery to support OT applications & critical service dependences.

Automate the recovery of physical machines eliminating manual intervention for rapid recovery.

Improve system recovery times to meet production targets

Traditional recovery methods for physical machines often require manual intervention, creating a significant bottleneck, especially during large-scale recoveries. Cristie Software’s system recovery solutions eliminate this obstacle by automating the recovery process, streamlining operations and reducing the time and effort needed for physical machine recovery. This automation minimizes human intervention, enabling faster, more efficient system restoration, particularly in large and complex environments.

Resilience Testing

Schedule simulated recoveries with Machine Learning (ML) driven result log file analysis.

Recover to physically and logically segregated systems for cleanroom recovery analysis.

Verify recovery time and recovery point objectives for critical OT applications to ensure that production target can be met.

System Recovery Testing: Manufacturing companies can regularly test their backup and recovery systems to ensure they can reliably restore vital systems without interrupting ongoing production. Any vulnerabilities or issues uncovered during these tests can be promptly addressed and incorporated into an updated recovery plan to strengthen future resilience.

Cristie have applied Machine Learning to improve system recovery performance

Cyber Resilience

Simplify recovery at scale for critical production systems.

Incorporate advanced anomaly detection into the recovery process to detect malicious file encryption.

Accelerate and modernize your OT and IT system recovery procedures.

Implementing efficient system recovery is a fundamental component of building Cyber Resilience into manufacturing operational technology. Cristie Software’s system recovery solutions are designed to support large-scale recovery efforts by seamlessly integrating with leading backup platforms such as IBM, Dell Technologies, Rubrik, and Cohesity. This collaboration ensures efficient and reliable recovery processes, even in complex and expansive IT environments.

How CBMR works

Learn more about CBMR.

CBMR is a simple, yet powerful, backup software solution that creates a backup of your entire system as well as the data files and databases that you specify. The backup can be held on a network share, a tape device, a library, a standalone NAS or using Spectrum Protect.

The software will also provide quick recovery of the operating system in the event of system failure or human error. The recovered machine can be on dissimilar hardware or on a virtual or cloud machine.

CBMR also provides the ability to clone to a new machine from an existing backup. The cloning option allows the hostname and/or the IP address to be changed during the recovery.

CBMR allows you to backup data on your system to any backup location attached to your computer or network, including FTP (Windows only), tape, VMware, Hyper-V, Spectrum Protect and AWS and OCI public clouds. You can then examine the content of the backup and restore any desired files or directories.
